  • I'm curious what the New Yorker readership numbers are. I can't find them on a quick search and don't really have time too look now, but what's blaringly obvious to me is that with all the hullabaloo over the cover, a lot more people have seen it this way than had there been no "outrage" and it would have gone by unnoticed by so many.

  • No can do, G. Road trip planned for Friday, I'll be long gone by Saturday.

  • See Des, here's what I'm thinking. This is just another reason why he's got to pick her as VP. Get everybody riled up again. Hell, Gotalife's thread yesterday was the most excitement I've seen around here in weeks.

    I mean, The New Yorker, FISA, the faith-based initiatives...that just all felt like trying to hard to be outraged. With Hillary-is-the-devil/no-she's-a-fighter! arguments, the outrage just comes so...naturally.

    I can't quite put my finger on why no one seems to be able to work up that kind of outrage at McCain.

  • Quinn. You always make me laugh. What in the hell were you doing googling Mute Tourette's anyway?

    By the way, it's not the title. It's the fact that there's an open thread again on Hillary v. Obama. Riles 'em all up. Just like the old days.
